Software developers use Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) of libraries and frameworks extensively while writing programs. In this context, the recommendations provided in code completion pop-ups help developers choose the desired methods. The candidate lists recommended by these tools, however, tend to be large, ordered alphabetically and sometimes even incomplete. A fair amount of work has...
There is an urgent need for metadata to accompany and describe media data essence. With the growing amount of personal content, user generated descriptors tend to be vague to the point of uselessness. There is a need for standardization in the metadata format to allow a full and useful description of content that is interoperable between consumer devices. Manufacturers need to ensure that the metadata...
So far there is no connection between mobile nursing documents, documentation of nursing homes and care documentation of hospitals. Inadequate communication processes affect the quality of nursing care due to time delay and risk of errors due to repeated data entries, and therefore the quality of life for elderly people. In order to enable standardized processes and uniform communication between different...
A process is an important concept in modern software development. Only when the activities are organized in process descriptions, can these be communicated, followed, observed, and improved. The basis for understanding what testing is, is therefore the understanding of the testing process. This paper presents the general concept of a process, and expands on this to present a suggestion for a generic...
An approach is presented that integrates IEEE professional standards, with the process suggestions of "Control Objectives for Information and related Technology" (CobiT) and customer focused IT Service Management (ITSM) / IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) framework best practices. Engineering managers are professional problem solvers possessing the skills needed in today's highly governed...
What kind of communications problems exist in an international project environment, and how do they impact the execution of work? Extensive interviews show that there is often a lack of standards, and often no well-defined approach managers use to offset communications issues on international projects. Further, when effective strategies are found, they tend not to become institutional knowledge. After...
